Ask HN: Who is hiring? (March 2015)

At Voxel8 we are developing a new 3D printer that is capable producing 3D electronics on the desktop. We just announced our new 3D electronics printer at CES this year, where it was very well received. Fast Company named us one of the 9 best ideas at CES.

I am looking for a software developer that has demonstrated ability with web technologies, but it also more than willing to wear other hats when the need arises. One of the perks of course will be that you can use our printer to design and print whatever you want!

Technologies we are using:

* Javascript/HTML/CSS

* Ruby on Rails

* Docker

* Python/numpy/scipy

* Julia

* Microcontrollers/Arduinos (C/C++)

I am looking for people who are:

* Self directed

* Able to propose and meet their own milestones

* Work with end users of our machine

Voxel8 is the hottest new startup in 3D printing and we are changing the way electronics are manufactured. If you want to be a part of our incredible team, please email me at jack@voxel8.co

"We shape our tools, and thereafter our tools shape us"

The goal is to democratize software. Quite a shame that 30 years into personal computing, an average person's interaction still caps at word-processing. We'd like to change that.

A beautiful loft/artist office in the Mission. Best investors out there.

You will be part of the founding team. You need to be able to make things and think conceptually.

Positions:

* Infrastructure Engineer [Starting at €45,000 and 0.25% equity]

* Frontend Engineer [Starting at €40,000 and 0.25% equity]

* Data Science Engineer [Starting at €45,000, and 0.25% equity]

We are working at the intersection of amazing user-experience, advanced security and cutting-edge artificial intelligence.

Our approach to work is drastically different to other security companies.

Every discussion, every feature starts from the customer's point-of-view and from a design perspective. We work very hard on understanding the pains, figuring out what our customers want and ultimately give them what they need.

We don't understand why security products have to be so complex, ugly, expensive, and ill-adapted to today's application development and deployment lifecycle.

Our goal is to take these complex systems and completely abstract them from the user. Security is hard, managing and responding to security events shouldn't be hard.

Full Time Generalists and Front End Engineers | Downtown San Francisco (near the Montgomery BART Station)

We have a very agile group of 12 engineers at Academia.edu in Downtown SF. I joined them because I really respect the problems that they are working on. Are you aware of how inefficient, inaccurate, slow and costly, scientific publishing is? In fact, the vast majority of peer-reviewed scientific research that gets published is actually not reproducible. Imagine a world where scientists can share their research more quickly, obtain greater peer-review coverage, and innovate faster. I joined because I wanted to contribute to building this disruptive Open Science platform.

Below you can find some more info about the company and the general mission of Open Science below if you're interested in the subject.

The tech stack here consists of Rails, Coffeescript, Backbone, PostgreSQL, hosted on AWS. I'd like to tell you more about our team so ping me at hiring[at]academia.edu so we can set up a quick call.
